Dragon's Origin

Chapter 532: Wang Sheng's Minor Circulations

Just as he was speaking, Wang Sheng's spiritual space suddenly shook. In an instant, Wang Sheng knew that the combat awareness figure had finished absorbing the energy and stood up.

With the combat awareness figure present, Wang Sheng was now thirty percent more confident in subduing the snow eagle. Originally, he was only fifty-fifty after his own advancement, but now, with the additional thirty percent from the combat awareness figure, he had an eighty percent chance of success. With an eighty percent success rate, why not go for it?

Catching that flying beast was Wang Sheng's second mission here, as the old Taoist was well aware. However, the old Taoist hadn't seen a snow eagle before; he only knew that Wang Sheng wanted to acquire a flying beast in the inner circle of the Thousand Layered Land.

When they first arrived, the flying mounts of the Baoqing Flourishing Hall were all the rage outside, and Wang Sheng, the old Taoist, and A'Qi had even been chased by them. The scene was still vivid in their minds. Wang Sheng had been holding his breath about it, and even Ling Xu Old Taoist hadn't felt comfortable.

With the old Taoist's cultivation, seniority, and status, when had he ever been chased? And chased so relentlessly? Wang Sheng wanted to get an even more powerful flying mount, and the old Taoist supported him without hesitation.

This was a flying beast from the inner circle of the Thousand Layered Land. Not to mention attacking, just releasing its aura would probably scare the so-called flying mounts of the Baoqing Flourishing Hall into crawling on the ground, afraid to take off.

The sled sped towards the ice mountain marked by Wang Sheng. After more than half a day, they arrived at their destination. However, Wang Sheng and the old Taoist didn't approach immediately. Instead, they stopped at a certain distance and continued to build an ice house.

On Wang Sheng's complete map, there were markings for the ice city left by the Shi and Gan families, and even the ice house that Wang Sheng and the old Taoist had left behind when Wang Sheng advanced. The ice houses wouldn't be blown away by the strong winds in a short time. If those people outside came in and were lucky, they wouldn't have to build their own campsites. As long as there weren't too many people, it would be enough for them to rest.

The current location was the same. Wang Sheng and the old Taoist had discussed it. Since they were going to let people in, they should provide them with as much convenience as possible. They might as well build a few more ice houses in several directions, as a perk for the fifty million gold coin map.

The old Taoist had no objection to this. Anyway, he and Wang Sheng had to live somewhere, so it was just a matter of making it bigger and putting in a little more effort. Now that they didn't have to trek so hard, building a few ice houses was no problem.

In the past two days, Wang Sheng hadn't just been rushing. He had actually been adapting and consolidating his current cultivation along the way. At the same time, he had been eating and drinking well, slowly making up for the losses from those days of staying up for three days and three nights without food or water. The old Taoist was the same, except he had only done it once less than Wang Sheng, and was also recuperating.

Inside the ice house, Wang Sheng's consciousness once again entered his spiritual space and saw the combat awareness figure again. The combat awareness figure was still just one, and hadn't split. However, Wang Sheng felt that the combat awareness figure seemed much clearer.

Before, the combat awareness figure had always been a shadow, very blurry. Except for the outline, all other parts were a hazy gray. Now, it seemed to have some edges.

In any case, the combat awareness figure was definitely beneficial. It had absorbed the energy from the hairpin, and also absorbed a lot of spiritual liquid when Wang Sheng was tempering his body with spiritual energy. He just didn't know how much the combat awareness figure had improved.

As soon as this thought arose, the combat awareness figure seemed to sense Wang Sheng's idea and began to split on the spot.

Wang Sheng wasn't surprised at all. He was already used to dozens of combat awareness figures appearing together. The appearance of just one would have been very strange to him.

One became two, two became four, four became eight... thirty-two became sixty-four. Just when Wang Sheng thought it was over, the sixty-four combat awareness figures split again, each dividing into two, turning from sixty-four into one hundred and twenty-eight.

Okay, the combat awareness figure's strength increase was really too direct. Wang Sheng could tell how much it had improved just by looking at the number of clones. Now it seemed that it had at least doubled. Not only that, each of the one hundred and twenty-eight combat awareness figures was bigger than when there were sixty-four. That also meant that each one was at least a few percent stronger than the original ones.

Wang Sheng was still waiting for the combat awareness figure to continue splitting, but the figure stopped. It seemed that one hundred and twenty-eight was the limit.

That was fine too. From the surface, the combat awareness figure's strength had at least increased by more than two times, maybe less than three times, but that was enough to make Wang Sheng ecstatic.

Originally, the combat awareness figure could give Wang Sheng a thirty percent chance of capturing the flying beast. Now it was at least forty percent. If he didn't do it now, wouldn't he be wasting a great opportunity?

Wang Sheng's acupoints had now become two hundred and fifty-six, almost twice as many as the old Taoist. Unfortunately, Wang Sheng had tried it. Even if he advanced to the eighth level and completed the Gongfu transformation, his cultivation speed, especially the speed of the minor circulations, was still around one minute, completely incomparable to the old Taoist's state of completing it in one long breath.

However, the old Taoist's method had inspired Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng directly abandoned the Daoist Canon of Tranquility and used the purest Daoist Canon cultivation method optimized by Ling Xu Old Taoist. The difference was that Wang Sheng had two hundred and fifty-six acupoints, enough for the Daoist Canon cultivation method of ninety-nine eighty-one acupoints to be cultivated three times.

In fact, Wang Sheng was planning to do so. With two hundred and fifty-six acupoints, each time Wang Sheng cultivated the minor circulations, it was actually three complete minor circulations. The first acupoint to the eighty-first acupoint was the first minor circulation, from eighty-two to one hundred and sixty-two was the second, and from one hundred and sixty-three to two hundred and forty-three was the third. Wang Sheng would leave the remaining thirteen acupoints empty for now, and use them later when he had the strength to utilize them.

Previously, the combat awareness figure had not awakened, and Wang Sheng did not dare to actively cultivate, for fear of interfering with the combat awareness figure. Now that the combat awareness figure had digested the energy, it was just right to assist Wang Sheng in trying the three-cycle minor circulation cultivation.

Each acupoint had formed a Tai Chi yin-yang vortex, so the first minor circulation was very easy, just the original route. The second minor circulation was a bit more difficult. But since Wang Sheng knew the method, and with the help of the combat awareness figure, he easily completed the second minor circulation after only three attempts.

The real difficulty was the third one. Wang Sheng tried his best and tried more than twenty times in a row, failing until he finally completed it once on the twenty-seventh attempt.
